About Us



A city school teacher.  A med student.  A graphic designer.  A mom.  A MODOT engineer.  A blue-eyed infant.  Quite simply, this is church.  We are adamant that church is not a place we go or a thing we do.  It is who we are.  Reliant is an eclectic group of people gathered around Jesus.  


Inspired, supported, and encouraged by Christ Memorial Lutheran Church, Reliant is a mission aimed at transforming St. Louis with the gospel of Jesus.  

  • Renew Life. A community centered in Christ. We value relationships, community, and together living a life informed by sacred Scripture.

  • Reveal Truth. A message defined by the Gospel. Rather than moralism, legalism, or self help, we proclaim Jesus - his life, death, and resurrection creating a new reality for our existence.

  • Reform the World. A mission transforming lives. We relentlessly seek to transform our generation, engage our culture, and renew our city with the Gospel.

We don't believe in walking it alone, or being lone theological rangers.  We walk together with about 6,000 other congregations across the country in a church body known as The Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod.
